    Back in the day we had a 1953 Evinrude 25. The long coil screw came loose and made the throttle plate stick at times.
    My dad was a perfectionised kinda guy.He put on the proper OMC puller tightened all bolts equal and rapped the top of the puller with a hammer no go. My dad stripped the 1/4 and retapped 5/16 bolts finally it came off with a bang with 3/8 bolts in the puller.We could never figure out why that motor was so tight there was no rust on the flywheel.I have pulled lots of rusty ones with ease.
